"Raul and his crew were working in our neighborhood. We called and spoke with Angela and she was very helpful and Raul came out the same day, he was in the neighborhood, and gave us an estimate. Three weeks later, they came and removed two trees, grounded the stumps, and trimmed several oak trees and palms trees that were overgrown. They were a company that did exactly what they said they would and cleaned up the yard of all the debris."

"These guys came out cleared the lot That I bought across the street from my house They made every pepper tree into wood shavings it looks amazing. They cut down a huge oak tree towering over my house as well as my neighbor's house Roping and dropping every limb exactly where they wanted. On the adjacent side of my house, they sent a free Climber up and trimmed that oak tree to perfection. They clean all 3 yd up. Managed to get everything done in 1 day. Even with a hour and a 1/2, rain delay. These guys have the equipment and are driven. And do an awesome job could not be more happy."

"HIGHLY recommend Alex and his team. After receiving 6 quotes to remove a large 50ft oak from a hard to access spot between my pool and a fence, Alex came in with a good price but it was after meeting him that I knew he was the one for the job. I felt comfortable having him in charge of the job while I wasn’t home. Him and his crew did a great job and cleaned up everything including some extra TLC like skimming branches out of my pool after. I am very happy with the work and will definitely use Gold Palm again in the future for any tree needs."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.

Pruning trees during the summer can be a bad idea because the new growth will take place during the hottest months of the year, which can stress your tree out. Similarly, pruning during the early fall can be a bad idea, too, because you’d be stimulating new growth when most trees are aiming to go dormant. 

Pruning recommendations will vary by the type of tree, but generally, waiting until winter to prune your trees is a good idea.

If executed correctly your tree should survive after being transplanted to a new spot. However, effective transplanting requires six months, careful root pruning, safe transport to the new location, and replanting in prime soil conditions. You’ll also need an appropriately sized root ball for a complete tree transplant. A good rule of thumb is that, for every inch in diameter, your tree’s root ball needs to be around 11 inches. So a tree with a diameter of six inches needs a root ball of approximately 66 inches.

A standard tree removal doesn’t include stump grinding. If you want your contractor to remove your tree and grind the stump, you must pay an extra charge. That said, you’ll likely save on the cost of stand-alone service—especially if it’s a small tree and they can finish both jobs in a single trip.
